A Go implementation of the core algorithm in Standford and Yahoo's paper <[Indexing Boolean Expression](https://theory.stanford.edu/~sergei/papers/vldb09-indexing.pdf)>, which already supports the following features mentioned in paper:

- DNF algorithm
- Simple match
- TopN match (ranking based)
- Online update (Copy-On-Write)

## usage

``` Go

import 
	"github.com/csimplestring/bool-expr-indexer/api/dnf/expr"
	"github.com/csimplestring/bool-expr-indexer/api/dnf/indexer"
	"github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
)

var conjunctions []*expr.Conjunction

conjunctions = append(conjunctions, expr.NewConjunction(
		1,
		[]*expr.Attribute{
			{Name: "age", Values: []string{"3"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{1}},
			{Name: "state", Values: []string{"NY"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{40}},
		},
	))

conjunctions = append(conjunctions, expr.NewConjunction(
		2,
		[]*expr.Attribute{
			{Name: "age", Values: []string{"3"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{1}},
			{Name: "gender", Values: []string{"F"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{3}},
		},
	))

conjunctions = append(conjunctions, expr.NewConjunction(
		3,
		[]*expr.Attribute{
			{Name: "age", Values: []string{"3"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{2}},
			{Name: "gender", Values: []string{"M"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{5}},
			{Name: "state", Values: []string{"CA"}, Contains: false, Weights: []uint32{0}},
		},
	))

conjunctions = append(conjunctions, expr.NewConjunction(
		4,
		[]*expr.Attribute{
			{Name: "state", Values: []string{"CA"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{15}},
			{Name: "gender", Values: []string{"M"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{9}},
		},
	))

conjunctions = append(conjunctions, expr.NewConjunction(
		5,
		[]*expr.Attribute{
			{Name: "age", Values: []string{"3", "4"}, Contains: true, Weights: []uint32{1, 5}},
		},
	))

conjunctions = append(conjunctions, expr.NewConjunction(
		6,
		[]*expr.Attribute{
			{Name: "state", Values: []string{"CA", "NY"}, Contains: false, Weights: []uint32{0, 0}},
		},
	))

// read only indexer, best performance
	k, err := indexer.NewMemReadOnlyIndexer(conjunctions)
	assert.NoError(t, err)
	k.Build()

matcher := &allMatcher{}

matched := matcher.Match(k, expr.Assignment{
		expr.Label{Name: "age", Value: "3"},
		expr.Label{Name: "state", Value: "CA"},
		expr.Label{Name: "gender", Value: "M"},
	})

assert.ElementsMatch(t, []int{4, 5}, matched)

matched = matcher.Match(k, expr.Assignment{
		expr.Label{Name: "age", Value: "3"},
		expr.Label{Name: "state", Value: "NY"},
		expr.Label{Name: "gender", Value: "F"},
	})

assert.ElementsMatch(t, []int{1, 2, 5}, matched)

// copy on write indexer, you can ADD or DELETE new conjunctions
	// the refresh interval in second, to control how often to swap the old and new index
	// usually set it up to 15 minutes, which is ok in most cases.
	freshInterval := 5
	k, err := indexer.NewCopyOnWriteIndexer(conjunctions, freshInterval)
	assert.NoError(t, err)

k.Delete(4)
	
	matched = matcher.Match(k, expr.Assignment{
		expr.Label{Name: "age", Value: "3"},
		expr.Label{Name: "state", Value: "CA"},
		expr.Label{Name: "gender", Value: "M"},
	})
	assert.ElementsMatch(t, []int{4, 5}, matched)

// after 5 seconds, the modifications will be applied.
	time.Sleep(5 * time.Second)
	matched = matcher.Match(k, expr.Assignment{
		expr.Label{Name: "age", Value: "3"},
		expr.Label{Name: "state", Value: "CA"},
		expr.Label{Name: "gender", Value: "M"},
	})
	assert.ElementsMatch(t, []int{5}, matched)
```

## Use Scenario

It is an important component in online computational advertising system. As mentioned in the paper, the original motivation of this library is to provide an efficient way to select ads based on pre-defined targeting condition. Given a user with some labels, it finds the best-matched ads.

In a typical advertising management system, the following hierarchy models are used:

Advertisers
    |__ LineItem 
        |__ InsertionOrder 
            |__ Campaign
                |__ Creative Banners With Targeting Condition

### Ad selector in RTB

In the RTB or similar environment, when a bidding request comes, usually it comes with some user-profile context(in the paper, it is called ***assignment***). The Ad server then needs to quickly find the matched creative banners that match the targeting condition(in the paper, it is expressed as ***conjunctions***).  A naive way is to iterate all the banners and compare the user-profile with targeting condition one-by-one, which is very slow when there are millions of banners in the system, however the whole RTB workflow must be done with 100 ms.

### User segmentation in DMP

In a DMP environment, all the collected user data shall be processed, enriched and aggregated in nearly real-time. One key problem is to quickly identify a user belongs to which group, based on pre-defined group condition.

This library is developed for the above scenarios. The following features are supported

- DNF algorithm

For example: a targeting condition can be expressed as: (age = 30 AND city = A) OR (gender = male AND age = 20 AND region = B) etc

- Simple match

It returns all the matched expression ids

- TopN match (ranking based)

It returns the TopN matched expression ids, based on an adopted WAND algorithm. Note that the caller has to provide the upper bound and score of each conjunction, usually can be calculated in a Spark job.

## Benchmark

Memory usage: 1 million of expressions are indexed and it takes 100 MB on average.

## Roadmap

This library only implements the core DNF algorithm in that paper. However, it is more useful to use it to build up a production-ready Ad Server. Currently, the indexer does not support online update(all the expressions shall be indexed once in the beginning). Also, the speed will be slow if the expressions number increases. Therefore I plan to support more advanced features soon

- metrics monitoring
- index partitioning
- canary rollout deployment
- HA support
- http/gRPC transport
- web UI
